Mobile World Congress (MWC)
Mobile World Congress (MWC) is an international industry event organised by the GSMA, a trade body for the technology communications and connectivity sector.
MWC Barcelona is the flagship event, while MWC events also take place in Las Vegas, Shanghai and Africa. The next edition will be in Barcelona, taking place from 26 - 29 February 2024.
MWC is attended by tens of thousands of professionals working for mobile network operators, manufacturers, technology providers and other companies from around the globe.
At Vodafone, we believe connectivity and technology have the power to create a more inclusive digital society. That’s why at MWC Barcelona 2024, we’re showcasing an array of cutting-edge technologies under the theme ‘Progress Through Technology’.
Guests will be taken on a transformative journey through our stand’s four key demo areas: Smarter Networks, Business, Communities, and Innovation. Each of these areas demonstrates how Vodafone has continuously elevated its products and services for the betterment of all.
